Our prediction for this League 2 match:
Doncaster Rovers will be aiming to seal their spot in the playoffs when they take on Gillingham on the last day of the season. The Donny look unstoppable at the moment, with the team eyeing their eleventh consecutive win in League Two, but they should be happy with one point from Saturday’s clash as well. Midfielder Harrison Biggins should keep his place in the starting XI after getting his name on the scoresheet in the previous two league matches.
The Gills, on the other hand, missed out on a spot in the playoffs, but they surely want to finish the season in great manner. Taking everything into account, we believe that both sides should be satisfied with one point from the match. Robbie McKenzie is pushing for a recall to the starting XI, while there are no fresh injury worries in the home team.
Highlighted Player (Tom Anderson):
Known for his heading and no-nonsense defending, the 1.92 m tall center back, is an English footballer who plays for Doncaster Rovers in the third tier of English Football. Anderson was born in Burnley, on the 2nd of September, 1993. He joined Burnley's youth academy at the age of seven and went on to sign his first professional contract with the club in May 2012. The club then sent him out on loan to Conference Premier Club Barrow, where he made his first professional appearance on the 11th of August,2011, in a 0-0 draw against Telford United.
A further string of loans to Conference clubs Hyde, Halifax, and Lincoln City, League Two club Carlisle and League One club Chesterfield, succeeded his time at Harrow. On the 31st of January, 2018, Anderson joined his current club Doncaster Rovers initially on a year's loan before signing a two-year contract with the club in May.
This permanent switch ended his 18 years-long relationship with parent club Burnley during which, he never once made an appearance for the senior team. On the International front, the 26-year-old has never represented his country at any level.

Speaking of the club’s main rivals, over the years the Gills have built up a rivalry to Swindon Town. However, it has to be noted that Swindon fans do not consider Gillingham their biggest rivals.
